Global gold prices down about 1.4pc this week

Gold inched up on Thursday, recovering from near 4-month lows it hit early in the session after data showing euro zone businesses were under pressure reignited concerns about global growth, but a stronger dollar capped its gains.

Spot gold was up 0.1 per cent at $1,274.44 per ounce by 1237 GMT, having fallen to its lowest since 27 December at $1,270.63 earlier in the session.

The metal has so far lost about 1.4 per cent in the holiday-shortened week, and is on track for a fourth straight weekly decline. Most markets are closed for Good Friday on 19 April.

Euro zone businesses started this quarter on the back foot, with growth unexpectedly slowing again, surveys showed.

"The figures for the euro zone were mixed. The market clearly does not know what to do next. But the European Central Bank is going to be on hold, which is offering some support for gold," Quantitative Commodity Research analyst Peter Fertig said.

Gold, as a non-yielding asset, tends to suffer when central banks raise interest rates.

"The stock markets are down and that's compensating a bit in gold," Fertig added. "Uncertainty about the economic situation is also supporting the gold market a little bit."

Global shares erased this week's gains after the weak manufacturing surveys from Asia and Europe stoked fears of a slowdown in global growth.

The euro zone numbers came at a time when global markets were slowly recovering from fears of a slowdown after a slew of positive data from China and the United States.

Also on investors' radar will be developments in US-China trade talks.

Washington and Beijing have set a tentative timeline for the next round of talks and are aiming to conclude negotiations by early June, according to a Wall Street Journal report on Wednesday.

Helping curb gains in gold, higher than expected monthly retail sales data in the US pushed the dollar up by 0.4 per cent, making the metal more expensive for holders of other currencies.

Holdings of the world's largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund, SPDR Gold Trust, stood at 752.86 tonnes on Wednesday, a marginal increase from the previous day but still around their lowest levels since 27 October.

"While holdings in SPDR Gold shares have dropped to a six-month low, overall gold holdings in physically-backed ETFs have remained relatively consistent, suggesting macro asset allocators continue to maintain some exposure in the wider risk environment," BMO Capital Markets said in a research note.

Elsewhere, silver was down 0.3 per cent at $14.92 an ounce and platinum rose 1 per cent to $892.31.

Palladium slipped 1.2 per cent to $1,385 an ounce, having jumped 3.9 per cent to a two-week high of $1,406.81 in the previous session.

Currents (Tame Impala album)

Currents is the third studio album by Australian artist Tame Impala. It was released on 17 July 2015 by Modular Recordings and Universal Music Australia, Interscope Records in the United States, and Fiction Records and Caroline International in other international regions. Like the group's previous two albums, Currents was written, recorded, performed, and produced by primary member Kevin Parker. For the first time, Parker mixed the music and recorded all instruments by himself; the album featured no other collaborators.

After the release of the group's previous album, Lonerism (2012), Parker began work on Currents, largely recording at his home studio in Fremantle. He engrossed himself with writing and recording, and in keeping with his reputation as a musical auteur, laboured over the details of each song, ultimately causing the release date to be delayed by two months. In contrast to the psychedelic rock sound of the project's prior work, Currents marks a shift to more dance-oriented music, with more emphasis placed on synthesisers than guitars. Parker was inspired to seek a change out of desire to hear Tame Impala's music played in dance clubs and a more communal setting. Thematically, the record is about the process of personal transformation, which many critics interpreted to be the result of a romantic break-up. The album's cover art depicting vortex shedding is a visualisation of these themes.

Currents was preceded by the release of the singles "Let It Happen", "'Cause I'm a Man", "Disciples", and "Eventually". It became the group's best charting release, debuting at number one in Australia, number three in the United Kingdom, and at number four in the United States. Currents has sold over 120,000 copies in North America as of December 2015. Like its predecessors, the album received critical acclaim, and appeared on various critics' year-end lists of the best albums of 2015. At the 2015 ARIA Music Awards, Currents was awarded Best Rock Album and Album of the Year, while at the 58th Annual Grammy
